At one point, Creighton says "...we'll be hitting the hills" as the telegraph crew heads west from what was then called Omaha City. This is incorrect. Omaha was notorious for being hilly (in the late 19th Century and early 20th, the city went to great efforts to level many of the hills), but as you move west, away from the Missouri River, near what is now about 84th Street in Omaha, the land begins to flatten out dramatically.
